Woman tried to accost eight-year-old at Waterloo station and engage in a sex act, say cops

A woman tried to lure an eight-year-old boy away from his family to carry out a sex act at a busy train station.

Cops have released a CCTV image of a woman who “may have information which could help their investigation” after a female tried to get the young child to engage in sexual activity on December 22 around 8pm.

She accosted him while he was sitting with his family at Waterloo station, say the British Transport Police.

The schoolboy’s mother heard the sexually explicit comment the woman perpetrator made to her son and confronted her, causing the suspect to walk away.

Officers believe the woman in the CCTV images may have information which could help their investigation.
